Add .NET 8.0 C# port of OpenV2G EXI codec

- Port core EXI encoding/decoding functionality to C#
- Implement V2G protocol parsing and analysis
- Add simplified decoder/encoder for roundtrip testing
- Create comprehensive error handling with EXI exceptions
- Support both byte array and file stream operations
- Include packet structure analysis for V2GTP data
- Successfully builds and runs basic functionality tests
